How do I track upstream SVN changes using git-svn and github?
I used git-svn to convert an SVN repo to
git on github:
$
git svn clone -s http://svn.osqa.net/svnroot/osqa/ osqa
$ cd osqa
$
git remote add origin
[email protected]:turian/osqa.
git
$
git push origin master
I then made a few changes in my
git repo, committed, and pushed to github.
Now, I am on a new machine. I want to take upstream SVN changes, merge them with my github repo, and push them to my github repo. This documentation says: "If you ever lose your local copy, just run the import again with the same settings, and you’ll get another working directory with all the necessary SVN metainfo."
So I did the following. But none of the commands work as desired. How do I track upstream SVN changes using git-svn and github? What am I doing wrong?
$
git svn clone -s http://svn.osqa.net/svnroot/osqa/ osqa
$ cd osqa
$
git remote add origin
[email protected]:turian/osqa.
git
$
git push origin master
To
[email protected]:turian/osqa.

You asked me to pull without telling me which
branch you
want to merge with, and '
branch.master.merge' in
your configuration file does not tell me either. Please
name which
branch you want to merge on the command line and
try again (e.g. '
git pull <repository> <refspec>').
See git-pull(1) for details on the refspec.
